would you like a jelly baby?

a christmas painting i did for me little sister, who is the biggest whoovian i know (dr. who fan). i painted the rendered part of it from a photo i found online. in the early shows, the dr. always carried candies called 'jelly babies,' and would offer them to anyone in any situation at random. we got some actually, and they taste quite nice. a bit like gumdrops. excellent show.




if i could give tom baker a hug right now, i would.

is that my cow? why no! it's a color rendering!

wish i got more done in this painting! i decided to try and mix atmospheric perspective with the intuitive color palatte, but it ended up taking a lot more time, so i missed out on some of the typography. i think my black and white was a more successful painting, but personally, i like this one better. the colors are just saturated enough to keep me from getting too bored. i'm not sure i'll go back and rework this painting, i need to take a break from painting from photos. time to paint some trees!!!
the atmosphere needs some help, so any suggestions on how i could improve on that would be great! i want to be able to apply atmosphere to my forest paintings next semester!
many thanks to all those in the art building who critiqued this painting. it really helped!
